( cheers and applause ) >> woodruff: and president obama issued a new fund-raising appeal saying this race is tied. a new abc news/"washington post" poll of likely voters found the president led 49% to 46%. but that was within the margin of error. and the poll found romney now leads in the level of enthusiasm among his supporters. the president hoped to reverse that trend as he hunkered down in williams burg, virginia, to prepare. on sunday his top advisor david axle rod told fox news that mr. obama will make some adjustments to the approach he took in the first debate. >> i mean, we saw governor romney sort of serially walk away from his own proposals and certainly the president is going to be willing to challenge him. >> woodruff: mitt
